No Great Lost: Songs, 1979–1985 is an anthology of songs recorded by Atlanta-based singer-songwriter Kevin Dunn between 1979 and 1985, including the entirety of his critically acclaimed 1981 album The Judgment of Paris, originally released on DB Records.[5] In The Trouser Press Record Guide, critic Ira Robbins described The Judgment of Paris as "a striking modern-music pop album" that "mixes technical flash with semi-demented musical ideas."[6]

This 21 track compilation also includes three songs from the 1983 EP C'est toujours la meme guitare (Press Records), four from the 1985 LP Tanzfeld (Press Records), both sides of a 1979 45-rpm single, and one song from Dunn's 1970s post-punk band The Fans, "Cars and Explosions".[1][2] It was released May 18, 2010, on Casa Nueva Records.[3]
